They were extremely polite. The conversation was so constrained that Maia couldn’t help feeling a bit nervously out of place. How formal did she need to be? Should she have given a better thank you? Was there some kind of customary guest thing that she was missing?

While internally she fretted over that, she tidied up the things they’d brought while she listened to Tavina and Bayek discuss her offer.

She very much wanted to hear the message but didn’t want to press, and she wasn’t sure what Tavina meant by ‘delicate’.

It’s alright. I’m just not sure when she will be back. She’s looking for her sister. Had she said that already? Oh dear.

That’s nice of her, to open up their home. When will that be? A winter feast. Again, though, the qualifier gave her pause. So… they should bring the children? She hadn’t heard much about the previous Akashingo trip, nor did she know about their pack in general. Only the small gleanings she’d gotten from Nala, Tavina, and Lilitu that left her not sure how she felt about the place and it’s treatment of those there. It seemed a harsher world than Brecheliant, one where appearances mattered heavily. Imagining Jay running loose around there, or Aiden giving orders to the Pharaoh, or Chickadee and Shenanigans tag-teaming… maybe it was family friendly. But their ways were so different she wasn’t sure it would be friendly to their family. She would hate to force them to behave just to keep a stranger happy.
